Grams of flour per cup (by flour type)
A cup of flour is not a fixed weight: it depends on the type of flour and how it is scooped. The figures below use the common US cup of 240 ml and are approximate. For baking, weighing in grams is more accurate than measuring in cups.
| Flour type | 1 cup (g) | 1/2 cup (g) | 1/4 cup (g) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plain / all-purpose | 120 | 60 | 30 |
| Self-raising | 120 | 60 | 30 |
| Bread (strong) flour | 130 | 65 | 32 |
| Wholemeal / wholewheat | 130 | 65 | 32 |
| Cake flour | 110 | 55 | 28 |
| Rye flour | 105 | 52 | 26 |
Scooping straight from the bag packs the flour and can add 20 per cent or more, so spoon flour into the cup and level it off if you must use cups. Many US recipes assume about 120 g per cup, while some UK conversions use 125 g; the difference is small in most recipes.
